Well, this has been a nice run. About exactly one year, 100 posts, and a little over 27,000 page visits. This seems like an appropriate time to say good bye to this puppy. Bye bye, puppy. If you’re curious about what I’m up to, check out my permanent personal website. Thanks for visiting, Jay

I’m happy to say that BookTV has announced its first set (maybe only set) of showings of my Brookline Booksmith Odd Clauses reading/discussion event. It will air on Sunday, January 22, at 3 pm and 8:15 pm, and then if you are an insomniac, at 1 in the morning on Monday. Details are here. So make sure to tune in and watch me sweat like Richard Nixon!
